ByStar is a Ruby gem that adds time-based query scopes to ActiveRecord and Mongoid models, letting you find records by year, month, fortnight, week, day, or arbitrary time ranges. It provides convenient finder methods like by_year, by_month, between_times, before, and after for time-oriented data queries.

Use cases

• query posts created in a given year or month
• find records between two dates or times
• get all records from yesterday or last week
• find the next or previous record relative to a given record
• query records by calendar month, weekend, or fortnight
• filter ActiveRecord or Mongoid models by time ranges

When to choose

• you use Rails ActiveRecord or Mongoid and frequently query by time periods
• you want reliable, tested scopes for year/month/week/fortnight queries instead of hand-writing date math
• you need calendar-aware queries like calendar months or weekends

When to avoid

• you don't use ActiveRecord or Mongoid (e.g. Sequel, ROM, or non-Ruby stacks)
• your time queries are too complex or custom for the provided scopes
• you need a non-Ruby ORM time-querying solution
